I pressed my ear to your chest
|
And heard something personal.
|
A whisper that knew my name.
|
Is it how your heart treats all strangers?
|
With love and affection?
|
Then I feel cold and empty.
|
|
I've got a sense of urgency.
|
I've got to make this happen.
|
No stone unturned.
|
|
I've got a sense of urgency.
|
I've got to make something happen.
|
No stone unturned.
|
|
I held your hand while you were sleeping
|
The whole night you griped to mine.
|
A grip that begged me to stay.
|
Is this how your limbs treat all strangers?
|
With love and affection?
|
Then I fell weak and empty.
|
|
Strangers don't hide.
|
The morning hunts you down.
|
And there's nothing stranger
|
Than to love someone.
|
|
I heard the water beat at your skin
|
A shower of discipline, as heavy as iron.
|
And I imagined the hand that gripped mine.
|
Now gripping the gaps in the tiles.
|
Just holding on tight.
